Recently, some cloaks, updated versions of Ahune's level 70 drops, were discovered in the game files, and we might see updated amulets as well, though that is unlikely, as the event boss for Love is in the Air, Apothecary Hummel, already dropped level 80 amulets.

The lack of hit on this staff means that it will be just as good for casters as healers. Without any mp5 or spirit, there isn't even any argument between classes that prefer one stat over the other. I foresee that this is going to be a highly sought after item (for healers as well as casters that are not desperately after hit). Let's hope the droprate is not as low as it was last year.

If this item will act like the level 70 version, then the use effect will make snow fall around your character for 1 minute, with a 1 minute cooldown.

Also, this will be a wonderful upgrade for all those healers who were stuck with Engraved Gargoyle Femur because of it's hit.

Rakkam의 댓글

Is it me or is this item underbudgeted?Sure crit instead of hit, wich is nice for pvp hit capped casters (my shadowpriest will love it), But you miss out on some stats compared to the femur 18 stam and nearly 30 int.

Is crit that much more expensive then hit?

For those saying that this item will drop out of the sack, you are wrong. This item will drop directly from the frost lord himself.

fori의 댓글

Saw the update, I was wrong, the chest he drops will only contain the cloaks, the scyte will be from the loot bag.

Grdian의 댓글

To bad it isnt as good as the staff from HpoS

Deragorn의 댓글

Can somebody confirm that it can drop from both the bag and the chest that spawns when you kill the boss?

LaxCats01의 댓글

How are you already getting to do the Midsummer Festival event?

Badboiz의 댓글

All that drops from the Chest this year are the Cloaks. the rest are found in the Satchel

There should be two versions, one Scythe and one Polearm.

3clipse의 댓글

Probably one of the coolest looking weapons in the entire game at the moment.

Pope의 댓글

I agree with Funden, a Polearm would be fantastic, I think the best way they could have implemented it would have been that you turn in his Shard for his Scythe, and get to choose rewards.

So, a Polearm, a Staff, Maybe a Sword out of the Scythe's blade...

Oh, I seem to be dreaming ;-)

I currently have the lvl70 version of this staff. I would like to get the ilvl232 version also for my herald of the titans run. Does this mean i will have to delete my lvl70 version of this staff just to be able to see it in the satchel? (Unique)

Sepsis2x의 댓글

Well I just killed Ahune for the first time this year and got this. I don't know if I was just lucky or if the drop rate was increased, so good luck.

gmagnus의 댓글

Doesn't some of the budget go into the Use ability?

Lindentree의 댓글

NB: You cannot trade this item, even within the party that killed Ahune together. If it drops for you and you aren't a caster, you can't give it to someone who would find it useful.

I hope they've upped the droprate to account for what is effectively an increase in the number of people "rolling" on each Frostscythe.

Just got one on my ICC25 geared boomkin, but not on my newly 80 mage :(

as far as I can tell, the buff does nothing but add a wintry effect to you character.

armyantsrule의 댓글

They screwed up the staff by placing an automatic icy enchant on it, though, which blows. If you could put on your own enchant, yes, this staff would be amazing with something like 63 spellpower.

PalaDinka의 댓글

So it's possible to a fury warrior (who wants to look cool) to titan's grip this and the previous version?Would look DEVASTATING. And if you use both ability (the let scythe's chill flow trough part.)?You will become the CHILL itself?Anyway would be interesting

Edit: there would be real need of a polearm version because the horseman's blade wasn't as cool as this is(in my opinion).

jenskrarup의 댓글

typically got a lock in lv 71 not relly much trouble untill now coolest staff in games comes on a freaking hoilday and now to get it for a useful purpes, i have to level my lock all the way to lv 80 sucks..

igoroth의 댓글

bag or the chest?

Lindentree의 댓글

It is definitely under budget. A direct comparison to Unspeakable Secret from regular PoS:

+63 SP (Standard increase from item level: any ilvl 232 weapon with SP will have 63 more SP than any ilvl 219 weapon with SP)-34 crit-13 haste+11 stamina+11 intellect

Depending on how a class values its different stats, this could easily be an upgrade - but for classes which benefit from both crit and haste, this is more of a sidegrade to Unspeakable Secret than anything, and definitely a downgrade from a Spectral Kris + Shriveled Heart combo, which also has a lower (average) item level:

-10 SP-7 crit-16 haste-1 socket+28 intellect+8 stamina

Dradee의 댓글

Anyone know how Icy Weapon would look on this?

Ixui의 댓글

This dropped from the bag on my Paladin, which means I can't equip it. But is there anyway to use the Use effect? Right clicking on it in my bag tries to equip it so that doesn't work, nor does it work from a button on the action bar, nor does Macroing it work. Am I destined to never have the chill flow through me? =(

Xhirosz의 댓글

LOL so far every time I've done the daily I've received this weapon.

TrollanGaems의 댓글

Wish this would have been usable by everyone. Because let's face it, most people using it will only be for show. Those who do use the stats will replace it relatively quick with something like 노여움 and 주름진 심장 . However it is a nice weapon to hold you over until you get that combo. I know that fresh 80s have a bit of trouble gearing up so the LFD tool allows them to enter the Frozen Halls instances.

Of course I had the luck that my Paladin alt got it on the very first bag, but not my main, a Mage.

Ooko의 댓글

Undeniable proof of under-itemization. I don't know why everyone is making comparisons to OH/MH combos, staves with different stats etc... Just compare it to the other ilvl232 staves available in the game that have ALL the same stats:

CheesusCrust의 댓글

segadomcast의 댓글

well, I've ran it 10 times now on my 5 80's. only got one so far (and OF COURSE on my full wrathful DK that can't even use it, but not on my fresh 80 lock >:[ ) Anyone have any idea of the drop rate? given that you only get one shot a day, and can't trade it, it would be pretty lame to do it everyday and not get it. Its just a 232 anyhow, nothing that special, but great entry level wep for a fresh 80

griborn의 댓글

Is the effect usable by all or just those able to equip?

Being a frost dk i feel this effect would be a great RP asset.

yxes의 댓글

Got it today on my warrior from my second bag i don't know the drop rate but i haven't seen one person with it so far shame i can't duel wield it with my Arcanite Ripper =/ And like the Arcanite Ripper there's no 30sec CD when you equip the staff

csnyder1582의 댓글

Just got this last night on my shadow priest and honestly not sure how I feel about it (aside from the fact it looks cool of course). Right now I'm running Surgeon's Needle with Faces of Doom in my off. Is this worth using? I see the decrease in spell power but the haste is rather nice. Thoughts?

Gullah의 댓글

Got this 80 version staff first time there on the first day sucks it was on my pally and not my druid :(

Windreaver의 댓글

Surgeons Needle plus Shriveled heart. Speculation has this under-itemized for an ilvl 232 staff, and the spirit is a waste of stats til Cataclysm.

Kalakagathosa의 댓글

As far as I can tell, enchant glows don't show up on this weapon, so don't blow your gold on Executioner mats like I did :p

ebgarvin의 댓글

If this is an upgrade for you, you may want to wait till after the Midsummer Fire Festival ends to enchant it . That way if you are lucky enough to find another one in your daily Satchel of Chilled Goods then you can just vendor/DE the one you have and loot the new one. Otherwise you will be stuck with one that you cannot loot out of the bag.

Tertius의 댓글

Nope, you won't have to worry about rolling against others in your group because Blizzard will be doing it for you behind the scenes instead. The difference is that you won't be able to farm the boss several times a day to increase your chances of being able to roll on it should it drop. I've downed the boss every day since Monday and every group has had the same reaction: "Emblems of Frost? That's it?" because none of the holiday items had dropped for anyone.

Thank you very much Lindentree I'm glad to see that some ppl acctually read the comments before just downrating them.....

Noana의 댓글

The model of this weapon itself looks very nice. It is however a shame that on some race/gender combinations the scythe cuts right through the head of the character when sheathed on their back. I was happy to see this item in the satchel on my female Troll priest, but wearing it for fun quickly turned out a bit disappointing, because it looked rather... uncomfortable having the blade sticking through the middle of her skull.

benjamino의 댓글

It is my opinion that this, and other rare items, should have sockets. Or at least come with deathfrost enchanted on it, allowing you to double-enchant it. Give ppl some reason to use it other thank it's visual appeal...

Sawb의 댓글

Would anyone else like to see holiday items not need proficiencies? Kinda like any class can equip them, but you have to actually be able to use the stat that are budgeted on said item only if you have the proficiency.

Edit: Reworded due to contradicting points.

69 Attempts over 7 characters and yet NO SCYTHE! lol... 7 characters over 8 days (2 attempts on the first night). Only good news is that a frost chip dropped from the bag...

Gryphon009의 댓글

Even if you can't use a staff, I'd keep this for Cat. I read that weapon talents will be removed so everyone can use anything and a warrior or paladin wielding a scythe would look pretty awesome to me.

Anyways, why is this a staff? A large blade at the end and the look of it makes it more of a two handed sword I'd think or an Axe because of how it's held and used.

Mafurios의 댓글

They should make it like 소화기 and remove the staff requirement so everyone can use it even just for the heck of it.

I just got one from the bag, woho.. I am a Deathknight and.. its prob just free 29g..Cant trade it, cant equip it, and all that, its nice but sad. :/

Couldn't even give it to my partyfriends.

Justly의 댓글

I would just like to protest the fact that this can drop for everyone. This is meant for casters ONLY. ONLY CASTERS CAN USE THIS. And yet it has a chance to drop for everyone. I've been trying every day for this for the past week, and today I decide to bring a rogue friend along cause he hadnt got a chance to do it yet. First *!@#ing try he gets it. FIRST TRY. And what does he do with it? Vendor it for 29 $%^&ing gold.This was by far blizzards worst idea of how to spread around world even items.Please bliz, limit the fail to new bgs, and not old world events. Thank you.

I'm not sure why this is downrated and tmptfate was uprated so high...

Lord Marrowgar wields a large version of Bryntroll, the Bone Arbiter and not the Frostscythe of Lord Ahune.

You missed the point of my post entirely. It was because the graphic of this staff causes a unique look when that warrior action occurs, thats why I recommended using this staff. Obviously the axe from the boss causes the same animation, this was to see something new and different.

Maybe people stopped looking at the raid bosses their guild mates carry them through?

Insulting people indirectly isnt needed either, we are all here to have some fun.
